Q. How are your teas packaged?

A. Teas are packaged by weight (50g), not by volume, so package size and fullness varies by tea type. Keep the bag sealed and store your teas in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain freshness and flavour.

Q. How many cups of tea can be made from your 50 gram bag of tea? 175 metal tin? 250 gram bag?
The number of cups of tea will vary slightly by tea, depending on how strong you like your tea and how much tea is required per cup. Generally speaking, 50 grams of tea will make approximately 20-25 cups of tea. 175 grams of tea will make approximately 70-90 cups of tea, and 250 grams will make 100-125 cups of tea.
